<h2>NAME</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>git-pull - Fetch from and integrate with another repository or a local branch</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="verseblock">
<pre class="content"><em>git pull</em> [options] [&lt;repository&gt; [&lt;refspec&gt;&#8230;&#8203;]]</pre>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Incorporates changes from a remote repository into the current
branch.  In its default mode, <code>git pull</code> is shorthand for
<code>git fetch</code> followed by <code>git merge FETCH_HEAD</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>More precisely, <em>git pull</em> runs <em>git fetch</em> with the given
parameters and calls <em>git merge</em> to merge the retrieved branch
heads into the current branch.
With <code>--rebase</code>, it runs <em>git rebase</em> instead of <em>git merge</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>&lt;repository&gt; should be the name of a remote repository as
passed to linkgit:git-fetch[1].  &lt;refspec&gt; can name an
arbitrary remote ref (for example, the name of a tag) or even
a collection of refs with corresponding remote-tracking branches
(e.g., refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*),
but usually it is the name of a branch in the remote repository.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Default values for &lt;repository&gt; and &lt;branch&gt; are read from the
"remote" and "merge" configuration for the current branch
as set by linkgit:git-branch[1] <code>--track</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Assume the following history exists and the current branch is
"<code>master</code>":</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>	  A---B---C master on origin
	 /
    D---E---F---G master
	^
	origin/master in your repository</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Then "<code>git pull</code>" will fetch and replay the changes from the remote
<code>master</code> branch since it diverged from the local <code>master</code> (i.e., <code>E</code>)
until its current commit (<code>C</code>) on top of <code>master</code> and record the
result in a new commit along with the names of the two parent commits
and a log message from the user describing the changes.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>	  A---B---C origin/master
	 /         \
    D---E---F---G---H master</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>See linkgit:git-merge[1] for details, including how conflicts
are presented and handled.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In Git 1.7.0 or later, to cancel a conflicting merge, use
<code>git reset --merge</code>.  <strong>Warning</strong>: In older versions of Git, running <em>git pull</em>
with uncommitted changes is discouraged: while possible, it leaves you
in a state that may be hard to back out of in the case of a conflict.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If any of the remote changes overlap with local uncommitted changes,
the merge will be automatically cancelled and the work tree untouched.
It is generally best to get any local changes in working order before
pulling or stash them away with linkgit:git-stash[1].</p>

<h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">-q</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--quiet</dt>
<dd>
<p>This is passed to both underlying git-fetch to squelch reporting of
during transfer, and underlying git-merge to squelch output during
merging.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">-v</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--verbose</dt>
<dd>
<p>Pass --verbose to git-fetch and git-merge.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--[no-]recurse-submodules[=yes|on-demand|no]</dt>
<dd>
<p>This option controls if new commits of all populated submodules should
be fetched too (see linkgit:git-config[1] and linkgit:gitmodules[5]).
That might be necessary to get the data needed for merging submodule
commits, a feature Git learned in 1.7.3. Notice that the result of a
merge will not be checked out in the submodule, "git submodule update"
has to be called afterwards to bring the work tree up to date with the
merge result.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>

<dt class="hdlist1">--no-commit</dt>
<dd>
<p>Perform the merge and commit the result. This option can
be used to override --no-commit.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With --no-commit perform the merge but pretend the merge
failed and do not autocommit, to give the user a chance to
inspect and further tweak the merge result before committing.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--edit</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">-e</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-edit</dt>
<dd>
<p>Invoke an editor before committing successful mechanical merge to
further edit the auto-generated merge message, so that the user
can explain and justify the merge. The <code>--no-edit</code> option can be
used to accept the auto-generated message (this is generally
discouraged).</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Older scripts may depend on the historical behaviour of not allowing the
user to edit the merge log message. They will see an editor opened when
they run <code>git merge</code>. To make it easier to adjust such scripts to the
updated behaviour, the environment variable <code>GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT</code> can be
set to <code>no</code> at the beginning of them.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--ff</dt>
<dd>
<p>When the merge resolves as a fast-forward, only update the branch
pointer, without creating a merge commit.  This is the default
behavior.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-ff</dt>

<p>Create a merge commit even when the merge resolves as a
fast-forward.  This is the default behaviour when merging an
annotated (and possibly signed) tag.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--ff-only</dt>

<p>Refuse to merge and exit with a non-zero status unless the
current <code>HEAD</code> is already up-to-date or the merge can be
resolved as a fast-forward.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--log[=&lt;n&gt;]</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-log</dt>

<p>In addition to branch names, populate the log message with
one-line descriptions from at most &lt;n&gt; actual commits that are being
merged. See also linkgit:git-fmt-merge-msg[1].</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With --no-log do not list one-line descriptions from the
actual commits being merged.</p>

<dt class="hdlist1">--stat</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">-n</dt>

<p>Show a diffstat at the end of the merge. The diffstat is also
controlled by the configuration option merge.stat.</p>

merge.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--squash</dt>

<p>Produce the working tree and index state as if a real merge
happened (except for the merge information), but do not actually
make a commit, move the <code>HEAD</code>, or record <code>$GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD</code>
(to cause the next <code>git commit</code> command to create a merge
commit).  This allows you to create a single commit on top of
the current branch whose effect is the same as merging another
branch (or more in case of an octopus).</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With --no-squash perform the merge and commit the result. This
option can be used to override --squash.</p>

<p>Use the given merge strategy; can be supplied more than
once to specify them in the order they should be tried.
If there is no <code>-s</code> option, a built-in list of strategies
is used instead (<em>git merge-recursive</em> when merging a single
head, <em>git merge-octopus</em> otherwise).</p>

<p>When true, rebase the current branch on top of the upstream
branch after fetching. If there is a remote-tracking branch
corresponding to the upstream branch and the upstream branch
was rebased since last fetched, the rebase uses that information
to avoid rebasing non-local changes.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When set to preserve, rebase with the <code>--preserve-merges</code> option passed
to <code>git rebase</code> so that locally created merge commits will not be flattened.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When false, merge the current branch into the upstream branch.</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>When <code>interactive</code>, enable the interactive mode of rebase.</p>

<p>See <code>pull.rebase</code>, <code>branch.&lt;name&gt;.rebase</code> and <code>branch.autoSetupRebase</code> in
linkgit:git-config[1] if you want to make <code>git pull</code> always use
<code>--rebase</code> instead of merging.</p>

When the remote branch you want to fetch is known to

its new tip will not be descendant of its previous tip

you fetched).  You would want
to use the <code>+</code> sign to indicate non-fast-forward updates

There is a difference between listing multiple &lt;refspec&gt;
directly on <em>git pull</em> command line and having multiple
<code>remote.&lt;repository&gt;.fetch</code> entries in your configuration
for a &lt;repository&gt; and running a
<em>git pull</em> command without any explicit &lt;refspec&gt; parameters.
&lt;refspec&gt;s listed explicitly on the command line are always
merged into the current branch after fetching.  In other words,
if you list more than one remote ref, <em>git pull</em> will create
an Octopus merge.  On the other hand, if you do not list any
explicit &lt;refspec&gt; parameter on the command line, <em>git pull</em>
will fetch all the &lt;refspec&gt;s it finds in the
<code>remote.&lt;repository&gt;.fetch</code> configuration and merge
only the first &lt;refspec&gt; found into the current branch.
This is because making an
Octopus from remote refs is rarely done, while keeping track
of multiple remote heads in one-go by fetching more than one
is often useful.

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In general, URLs contain information about the transport protocol, the
address of the remote server, and the path to the repository.
Depending on the transport protocol, some of this information may be
absent.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Git supports ssh, git, http, and https protocols (in addition, ftp,
and ftps can be used for fetching and rsync can be used for fetching
and pushing, but these are inefficient and deprecated; do not use
them).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The native transport (i.e. git:// URL) does no authentication and
should be used with caution on unsecured networks.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The following syntaxes may be used with them:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>ssh://[user@]host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>git://host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>
<p>rsync://host.xz/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>An alternative scp-like syntax may also be used with the ssh protocol:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>[user@]host.xz:path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This syntax is only recognized if there are no slashes before the
first colon. This helps differentiate a local path that contains a
colon. For example the local path <code>foo:bar</code> could be specified as an
absolute path or <code>./foo:bar</code> to avoid being misinterpreted as an ssh
url.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The ssh and git protocols additionally support ~username expansion:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>ssh://[user@]host.xz[:port]/~[user]/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>
<p>[user@]host.xz:/~[user]/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For local repositories, also supported by Git natively, the following
syntaxes may be used:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>/path/to/repo.git/</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>file:///path/to/repo.git/</p>

</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>These two syntaxes are mostly equivalent, except when cloning, when
the former implies --local option. See linkgit:git-clone[1] for
details.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When Git doesn&#8217;t know how to handle a certain transport protocol, it
attempts to use the <em>remote-&lt;transport&gt;</em> remote helper, if one
exists. To explicitly request a remote helper, the following syntax
may be used:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>&lt;transport&gt;::&lt;address&gt;</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where &lt;address&gt; may be a path, a server and path, or an arbitrary
URL-like string recognized by the specific remote helper being
invoked. See linkgit:gitremote-helpers[1] for details.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If there are a large number of similarly-named remote repositories and
you want to use a different format for them (such that the URLs you
use will be rewritten into URLs that work), you can create a
configuration section of the form:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>	[url "&lt;actual url base&gt;"]

<p>a URL like "work:repo.git" or like "host.xz:/path/to/repo.git" will be

arguments to <code>git merge</code> and/or <code>git pull</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">resolve</dt>

<p>This can only resolve two heads (i.e. the current branch

fast.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">recursive</dt>
<dd>
<p>This can only resolve two heads using a 3-way merge
algorithm.  When there is more than one common
ancestor that can be used for 3-way merge, it creates a
merged tree of the common ancestors and uses that as
the reference tree for the 3-way merge.  This has been
reported to result in fewer merge conflicts without
causing mismerges by tests done on actual merge commits
taken from Linux 2.6 kernel development history.
Additionally this can detect and handle merges involving
renames.  This is the default merge strategy when
pulling or merging one branch.</p>

conflict with our side are reflected to the merge result.
For a binary file, the entire contents are taken from our side.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This should not be confused with the <em>ours</em> merge strategy, which does not

<p>This is a modified recursive strategy. When merging trees A and

<p>With the strategies that use 3-way merge (including the default, <em>recursive</em>),
if a change is made on both branches, but later reverted on one of the
branches, that change will be present in the merged result; some people find
this behavior confusing.  It occurs because only the heads and the merge base
are considered when performing a merge, not the individual commits.  The merge
algorithm therefore considers the reverted change as no change at all, and
substitutes the changed version instead.</p>

<h2 id="_default_behaviour">DEFAULT BEHAVIOUR</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Often people use <code>git pull</code> without giving any parameter.
Traditionally, this has been equivalent to saying <code>git pull
origin</code>.  However, when configuration <code>branch.&lt;name&gt;.remote</code> is
present while on branch <code>&lt;name&gt;</code>, that value is used instead of
<code>origin</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In order to determine what URL to use to fetch from, the value
of the configuration <code>remote.&lt;origin&gt;.url</code> is consulted
and if there is not any such variable, the value on <code>URL: ` line
in `$GIT_DIR/remotes/&lt;origin&gt;</code> file is used.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In order to determine what remote branches to fetch (and
optionally store in the remote-tracking branches) when the command is
run without any refspec parameters on the command line, values
of the configuration variable <code>remote.&lt;origin&gt;.fetch</code> are
consulted, and if there aren&#8217;t any, <code>$GIT_DIR/remotes/&lt;origin&gt;</code>
file is consulted and its `Pull: ` lines are used.
In addition to the refspec formats described in the OPTIONS
section, you can have a globbing refspec that looks like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A globbing refspec must have a non-empty RHS (i.e. must store
what were fetched in remote-tracking branches), and its LHS and RHS
must end with <code>/*</code>.  The above specifies that all remote
branches are tracked using remote-tracking branches in
<code>refs/remotes/origin/</code> hierarchy under the same name.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The rule to determine which remote branch to merge after
fetching is a bit involved, in order not to break backward
compatibility.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If explicit refspecs were given on the command
line of <code>git pull</code>, they are all merged.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When no refspec was given on the command line, then <code>git pull</code>
uses the refspec from the configuration or
<code>$GIT_DIR/remotes/&lt;origin&gt;</code>.  In such cases, the following
rules apply:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>If <code>branch.&lt;name&gt;.merge</code> configuration for the current

<p>Using --recurse-submodules can only fetch new commits in already checked
out submodules right now. When e.g. upstream added a new submodule in the
just fetched commits of the superproject the submodule itself can not be
fetched, making it impossible to check out that submodule later without
having to do a fetch again. This is expected to be fixed in a future Git
version.</p>
